I heard the higher temperatures makes betta develop faster, I am unsure if this is true but it could help.

Along with good water quality and proper temp....And as LTB posted-the stunting hormones that they emit need to be diluted on a regular basis.

Good nutrition is really important IMO/E. Mine grow pretty fast and start to show some color by 3 weeks. I only feed live foods for the first 6-8 weeks. Mainly newly hatched BBS with their yolk sac intact, daphnia and tiny mosquito larva. Small frequent feeding of varied live foods.

The size of the tank can matter too as well as heat/humidity over the water.

Then you have the photopeirod- that I personally feel has a lot to do with growth/development, I stay on a 10-12h/day PP.
